Fox News
The chairman of House Republicans' campaign arm has introduced a bill to standardize concealed carry firearm rules across the country.
It's also gotten support from a lone member of the House Democratic Caucus, Rep. Jared Golden, D-Maine. Elizabeth Elkind is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital leading coverage of the House of Representatives. Previous digital bylines seen at Daily Mail and CBS News.
"What we're talking about is just requiring states to recognize the permit of another state just like you recognize a driver's license," Hudson told Fox News Digital. "When I drive to D.C. from North Carolina across Virginia, I don't stop at the Virginia line and take a driver's test to get another license. The state recognizes that North Carolina license."

President-elect Trump has already said he would sign such a bill if it reached his desk.
